Description

The Aberlour 15 Year Old Sherry Finish is a richly flavoured Speyside single malt that perfectly showcases the distillery’s renowned expertise in sherry cask maturation. Matured for 15 years before receiving an extended finish in premium Oloroso sherry casks, this now-discontinued expression offers exceptional depth, richness and balance.

The nose is wonderfully inviting, revealing aromas of dried fruits, dark chocolate, orange peel, honey and warming baking spices, complemented by polished oak and subtle nutty notes. On the palate, layers of rich raisins, figs, caramel, cinnamon and toasted almonds unfold alongside Aberlour’s signature silky malt character. The influence of the sherry casks brings remarkable complexity, leading to a long, warming finish filled with dried fruit, sweet spice and lingering oak.

Highly regarded by whisky enthusiasts for its superb balance between fruit, spice and sherry influence, the Aberlour 15 Year Old has become increasingly difficult to find since its discontinuation. It represents a style of Aberlour that many collectors believe helped establish the distillery’s reputation as one of Speyside’s finest producers of sherried single malt.

An excellent addition to any collection, this bottle (without box) offers both outstanding drinking and increasing rarity, making it a rewarding choice for collectors and lovers of richly sherried whisky alike.
